Last week, we exclusively told you the Vancouver Police Department still doesn't have a usage policy its controversial new Long-Range Acoustic Device. And that may explain why that device has yet to hit the city's streets, according to British Columbia Civil Liberties Association executive director David Eby. "We haven't seen it at all during the period of the Olympics - which is exactly when we expected to see it. We were watching for it. So it looks like they put the cart in front of the horse - buying it before there was any policy or discussion about how it was used."
